Easy Datastore Integration about greendao HOT 8 CLOSED

So, you are suggesting to generate a server-side (App Engine) converter system?

In general, if you want to extend the code generation in greenDAO, you should have a look at FreeMarker. greenDAO uses FreeMarket templates

Im suggesting to extend the generatorDao so it generates the Contructor which accepts an AppEngine Entity and the toDataStoreEntity Method. Also some static variables are needed and one import statement. I will just do it and then you can have a look at it and decide if you like to merge it.

So you are sending AppEngine Entities to the Android client?

from greendao.

I have a local database on the android client which i want to keep in sync with the datastore.

Im marshalling the Datastore Entity to the greenDAO entity on the server side.

from greendao.

ok its finished, what do you think about it?

I also generate an Entity stub for the Android Client to work.

Oh and i had some problems with the formatter, i couldnt find out your formatter settings, could you upload the eclipse formatter.xml to the project dir?

So when you check the diff, make sure you reformat the class first.

ok i realised how useless the feature is after i ran into some trouble with my fake Entity over and over again :)

i commited a version where the generator simply generates 2 methods to convert an entity to a Map<String, Object> and reverse.

this map works as a dto now and can easily be integrated with the datastore.

its not too much functionality, feel free to copy and paste the necessary code if u like the feature.

I'd love to see some generic synchronization using greenDAO. I guess this should mature in a separate project for a while.
